I'm using netscape composer for my site and i put the menu image in and then i tried to seperate it with the menu map and when i try to confrim it, it says "premature close of tag" i'll insert the code below, let me know what you think.
<map name="ptbmenumap">
<area shape="rect" coords="0,0,110,60" href="main.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="110,0,217,60" href="band.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="217,0,338,60" href="lyrics.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="338,0,444,60" href="mp3s.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="444,0,560,60" href="shows.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="560,0,662,60" href="links.html">

Where is the image? should be something like (I think):

&ltimg src="whatever.jpg(or gif)" usemap="ptbmenumap" border=0&gt
&ltmap name="ptbmenumap"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="0,0,110,60" href="main.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="110,0,217,60" href="band.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="217,0,338,60" href="lyrics.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="338,0,444,60" href="mp3s.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="444,0,560,60" href="shows.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="560,0,662,60" href="links.html"&gt
&ltarea shape="rect" coords="662,0,780,60" href="http://pub48.bravenet.com/guestbook/show.phpusernum=4094544902&cpv=1"&gt</a&gt (not sure if you just forgot that &gt here or in there too but that might be a problem)
